Rainer Gombos joins Zoic

Culver City/Vancouver-based VFX house Zoic Studios has signed creative director Rainer Gombos to serve as a creative director and VFX supervisor. He has recently won a 2012 Emmy Award for Best Visual Effects for his work as VFX supervisor on the season two finale of HBO’s series, Game of Thrones. Gombos studied animation and graphic design in Germany before beginning his career as a freelance visual effects and graphic artist, and though he started as a 3D artist, art director and technical director, Gombos transitioned to a VFX supervisor position.
